This is the first time I’ve seen anything like this. On a whole bunch of the live-stream websites right now like justin.tv and ustream.tv, this group is pulling a massive marathon. They’re already near hour 70 and they’ve raised almost $12,000 for the ALS Association. Hopefully you’ll see more of these kinds of events taking place especially with the release Black & White. Perhaps you’ll see more game marathons trying to reach out for aid and assistance to Japan following the earthquake.

Check out the speedgamers website for the weekend playthrough. Here’s a link to their channel on Justin.tv
